Hi,
Whether you want to sell them in a store or online (the per month overheads for online sales are lower), you need to start off with research.
Find out what is the market for such shoes. How many shops are there in the region near where you will be starting your store. What is your profit margin? How many pairs of shoes must you sell before you breakeven? Also, do you have a large enough network of people to sustain your required sales volume.
Do your costing and know exactly how many pairs you have to sell each day before you start.
Also, do you want to do it yourself or do you want to hire? But how do you hire a good salesman?
There are really many many aspects of starting a business. I could name more...
And there are many ways to do your biz.. eg; you could keep things simple and just sell your shoes to a retailer and earn comission in between ;)
The possibilities are endless!
It would be best to have a mentor with you. 99% of first time biz owners fail due to lack of experience and preperation for their business.
Good luck! |

You're doing the right thing -- doing research and asking around what you need to do.
Starting a small business takes a lot of courage. But, as they say, courage does not pay the bills. To be successful – to stay in business – you need more than courage. You need a combination of hard work, skill, perseverance, and lots of luck.
Some things you need to consider:
- "How can I support my family while I build up by business?"
- "What are my abilities?"
- "Is there a market for the product or service I have chosen?"
- "How long will it take this business to reach the financial goal I have?"
Here are the basic steps you need to do to launch a new business successfully:
1. Provide a benefit.
2. Determine the fit with your market.
3. Right timing is everything
4. Be ready to support your business
5. Develop a blueprint for success
6. Market, market, market
To give you ideas on what exactly do you need to start your own business, here are ten things you need to know before launching your own business “10 Things You Need to Know When Starting Your Own Home Business” http://www.powerhomebiz.com/052006/startingbiz.htm .
I recommend that you read the following books:
- What No One Ever Tells You About Starting Your Own Business : Real Life Start-Up Advice from 101 Successful Entrepreneurs
- Starting From Scratch: How To Start A Business When You Don't Have Money
- If You're Clueless About Starting Your Own Business and Want to Know More
- On the Move : How to Succeed and Survive As an Entrepreneur
-How to Make 1000 Mistakes in Business and Still Succeed
At some point, you may feel the need for someone to help guide you and show you the right steps in starting a business. There are several places where you may be able to find a mentor:
- Government Mentoring Programs such as SBDCs, which works with community colleges and local business development councils to offer mentoring programs http://www.sba.gov/sbdc/sbdcnear.html ; or the Women's Network for Entrepreneurial Training http://www.sba.gov/womeninbusiness/wnet_roundtables.html
- Volunteer programs such as SCORE http://www.score.org which is composed of mostly retired executives and entrepreneurs
- Formal mentoring programs such as Athena Foundation http://www.athenafoundation.org/programs/globallinks.html , Helzberg Entrepreneurial Mentoring Program http://www.helzbergmentoring.org/HEMP/ , or The Aspen Institute MicroMentor Program http://www.micromentor.org
- Professional organizations such as the National Women’s Business Council http://www.nwbc.gov/Mentoring/programs.html
- Industry and trade associations
- Local business groups, such as the chamber of commerce
- Local chapters of business groups |

The business consultant again - if you ask me specific questions i know i could help, i dont need to know the core of your business to do this.
But if your just looking for some quick advice, register your company with the secretary of state, apply for your sales tax id number and a few other legalities either place can help you with, then find your ideal location and sign the lease.
The most important thing is just to get out there and do it. |

Show your shoes to your friends and relatives. If they buy then you really have a hot product. Ask them to tell their friends and fellow employees about them. |

There are legally binding confidentiality agreements that can be executed before you discuss your idea with anyone. Ask your bank or your attorney for an example.
You really don't give much information here about your idea. But I'd advise you to start by writing a business plan. There are canned programs you can buy that will take you through the process step-by-step.
As to the "good wholesale deal" you're being offered...remember, whoever is selling to you thinks it's a good deal for THEM to sell at this price. Make sure you know your source, the quality of the merchandise and the actual price you can sell to the consumer.
Due diligence means to get ALL the facts, double check everything and get all the details in writing. |

I think it's better to start small, and then expand slowly. As for money, you can take a loan from a bank, or some organizations specially for entrepreneurs etc. |
